“…Indeed, these e uents join urban wastewater in municipal canals and have become alternatives in porbeagle-culture activities along these canals despite the very expensive and unavailable drinking water (G. A. Ouedraogo et al 2021). Some investigations in certain cities of Burkina Faso had raised suspicions that these e uents were the focus of multi-resistant Enterobacteriaceae.…”

“…highlighted in surface waters and porbeagle-culture products (Somda et al 2021). In West Africa, very few investigations have been reported on the surveillance of MRSA, yet their form of resistance is the most worrying and the most described in circulating S. aureus in the world [23][24]. Nevertheless, some authors in the West African sub-region had reported the presence of MRSA in certain countries.…”

Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) diagnostic techniques are not very easy in rattan practices in Burkina Faso and West African. This is main difficulty of good MRSA surveillance in this region. Thus, to consolidate MRSA data in locality that, 33 strains of S. aureus were tested for susceptibility to cefoxitin according using standard method. In addition, the genetic determinants including mecA gene and SCCmec cassettes were searched using conventional PCR technic to same strains. These protocols made it possible to obtain prevalence’s of 42.42% (14/33) and 18.18% (6/33) respectively of S. aureus resistant to cefoxitin and positive in Chrom MRSA ID® agar medium. From 33 S. aureus studied, 6 strains (18.18%) and 7 strains (21.21%) all of human origin were respectively positive for mecA resistance gene and SCCmec IVa cassette. This study brought circulating MRSA in the city of Ouagadougou. These MRSA harbor mecA resistance genes and SCCmec IVa cassettes.

Medicinal activities carried out within hospitals lead to a high consumption of antibiotics and subsequently result in a high excretion rate of antibiotic residues. These antibiotics consumed in human medicine are not fully absorbed by the body and are often discharged into the environment as biological waste from infected human patients. The significant water consumption in hospitals and the pharmaceutical impact on wastewater from healthcare facilities facilitate the emergence and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and antibiotic-resistant genes in the environment. Hospital effluents could be doubly involved in the dissemination of antibiotic molecules and multidrug-resistant bacteria in various ecosystems. The objective of this study is to characterize hospital effluents by assessing antibiotic concentrations and the diversity of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in these hospital wastewaters and within the environment (aquatic environments; rivers), as well as to inventory the bacteria present and those carrying antibiotic resistance in both hospital wastewater and the environment.
